As part of the campaign to promote the new game “FIFA 14″ on Xbox One, EA Sports has put online the first life-size avatar of the football player Lionel Messi. This avatar has been created from hundreds of high-resolution photos of the real Lionel Messi, that have been projected using Blender and 3D projection mapping.

The avatar LEO was designed with the Maya software, but its implementation in a browser has necessitated the creation of a 3D flow specially designed for the occasion and can handle models and 3D animations with different scales and details to integrate them into Adobe Flash.
